Jeff COFFIN: saxes, flutes, winds, percussion, etc…
Tatsuya NAKATANI: drums, bowing, percussion, gongs, bowls, bells, etc…

FROM JC:
In early 2015, I heard about Tatsuya coming to Nashville to present his ‘Gong Orchestra’ and I had to go check it out. I’m a bell freak so anything even close to bell really intrigues me. Anyhow, it was an incredible night of music and sound and after the show my wife Ryoko (also Japanese) and I invited Tatsuya to stay at our house that night. We hung, drank some saki, played some music, and began our friendship. We decided the next time he was thru town we would record something in my studio to hear what would happen. FLIGHT is the outcome of that recording.

The first piece is with Tatsuya on a regular drum kit, which is unusual to hear him on. The next two pieces are on his homemade kit and him bowing cymbals, gongs, singing bowls, etc…his approach to his instruments is unique and it challenged me to listen and play in a different way and with a different sensibility. I think I played almost every instrument i own at some point during our recording – saxophones, flutes, whistles, percussion stuff, etc…Over the next few months, I edited everything down and spliced parts together to give it a more ‘seamless’ quality and I really got to know Tatsuya’s playing through that process. He is approaching the drums, rhythm, and sound in an unusual way and I find this recording very interesting. I feel we indeed took flight together and I hope you too get wings as you listen…peace, jc

Part 1 Dancing With The Moon(clip)

Though the band members now live across the country, Commercial Break made the best of a short time playing together to explore and develop musically, bringing in their own distinct influences from fusion, hip-hop, Latin Music, and even prog-Metal into this self titled album. From the band, we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed getting to compose & develop the music for this record.

Many thanks to Ryan Middagh for his support & guidance to all the band members. To Jeff Coffin — thank you for your musicianship, friendship, and expertise in helping us produce this record. It could never have happened without your help.
